Gesher – A Bridge to Our Jewish Heritage

Gesher, our bridge to Judaism, is an alternative program to Sunday school.
Until last year, the program was designed for students in grades K-5. This year the program was expanded to the sixth grade.

Gesher offers programs of three and five days per week. On these days, students are exposed to the culture, rituals and traditions of Judaism, as well as a special program for Hebrew speakers and a program to learn Hebrew through prayers. Our incredible professional staff meets with students daily from 2:30 to 4 p.m. to teach these classes.

Our goal is to continue to give our children a Jewish education of excellence. Being part of Gesher, means bringing our students and families closer to our amazing community at Temple Kol Ami Emanu-El – a bridge that keeps bonding families from all denominations and different countries to our community.
